Connect the Dots

First I win a battle
Then I lose a war
I break through the ceiling
But who sweeps up the floor
See eyes for eyes just make more blindspots
So why should I connect the dots

I'm searching for heaven
And descend into hell
I find a treasure
Only to fall under it's spell
Give me a skeleton key I'll open pandora's box
So why should I connect the dots

I make a name
Just to sell it to the highest bidder
Then I Stake a claim to fame
Only to reconsider
Because few can hold their fire when given a shot
So why should I connect the dots

A master climber
Invents a mountain
People chasing Youth
They grow old at the fountain
And the bigger the mouth, the smaller the talk
So why should I connect the dots

You look up to the stars
Afraid to face Your own freckles
You cover up Your scars
And Hyde behind Your Jeckyll
But even a live wire wouldn't act so shocked
So why should I connect the dots

I'm building up a good life
For the time of death
Then I lose all my marbles and stripes
Before my final breath
And I already forgot my last forget-me-not
So why should I connect the dots

I give up
What a twist
Empty cup
Ignorance is bliss
High and dry, I left the plot
Why should I connect the dots - huh?
